Cao Xing was very puzzled, he gnawed his fingers and thought to himself: The boss is not sleeping this night, could it be that he is practicing some kind of unrivaled martial arts?
No, I have to wait and see, when the time comes, I will learn how to deal with you Song barbarian.
Cao Xing thought of this in his heart, and suddenly he was full of energy, without any sleepiness.Tiptoing to Lu Bu's tent door, Cao Xing raised his hand and carefully opened a gap, then moved his eyes close to it.
Under the flickering candlelight, Lu Bu was kneeling and sitting in front of a simple wooden desk, with his left hand resting lightly on the table, and his right hand holding a scroll of bamboo slips.
Cao Xing rubbed his eyes in fright as if he was hitting a ghost. The man who once burned the bamboo slips and books in the house actually started to flip through the books now!
Chapter 18 Readers
Cao Xing's small voice at the door naturally failed to escape Lu Bu's ears.
Lu Bu thought that an unexpected visitor had come, so he put the bamboo slips in his hand on the table, and said coldly, "Come out!"
Cao Xing felt a "thump" in his heart, so he had no choice but to sneak into the tent deafly, and shouted "boss" to Lv Bu with a guilty conscience.
Seeing that it was Cao Xing, Lu Bu's face suddenly softened, and a smile appeared: "You don't go to bed at night, why are you wandering outside my tent?"
Cao Xing grinned, "Boss, you haven't slept yet."
Lu Bu picked up the bamboo slips on the desk again, and waved at Cao Xing, "I'll go to sleep after I finish reading this volume."
Cao Xing pursed his lips, but he still hadn't seen the dawn.
The lights are flickering, and the shadows of candles are heavy.
Lu Bu seemed a little tired, and stretched out his hands to gently press the acupuncture points on both sides of his forehead.
Cao Xing quietly walked behind Lv Bu, stretched his neck to look at the content on the bamboo slips, and he, who had never been able to read and write, suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
"Boss, aren't you bewitched by an evil spirit?" Cao Xing dared to ask, but his voice was like a mosquito.
Cao Xing reached out to touch Lu Bu's forehead, but Lu Bu slapped it open.
Lu Bu was annoyed and funny about this, put down the bamboo slip in his hand again, and asked Cao Xing in bewilderment, "How did you know that I was bewitched?"
Cao Xing pointed to the bamboo slips, and said without hesitation: "Boss, you used to hate these things, and even burned a whole room of these useless things with your own hands. And you just saw it With relish, what is this if it’s not bewitching!”
Hearing this absurd reason, Lu Bu felt extremely helpless, and said in a low tone: "That's me in the past."
"You used to be?"
Cao Xing scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.
Lu Bu let out a "hmm", and couldn't help sighing in his heart, that was also me in the previous life.
Cao Xing seldom thought about it seriously, and then said again: "Boss, you were pretty good before, why do you have to learn these foolish things?"
Cao Xing's eyes rolled upwards, recalling the scene of meeting Lu Bu for the first time.
At that time, Cao Xing was still a ruffian in Wuyuan County, and Lu Bu had not yet joined the military camp, and his family was poor.The two met by chance on the street, and Cao Xing took the opportunity to blackmail Lu Bu's money, but was exposed by Lu Bu unexpectedly, and the two fought on the spot.As can be imagined, not only did Cao Xing not get the money, but he was beaten severely.
Perhaps because he never went to school, or was insulted by scholars with poems and prose, Cao Xing has a special hatred for scholars, so he often calls scholars "eggless people" and "dogs".
There was a moment of silence in the tent, the two of them were thinking about their own affairs.
"Boss, do you still remember that time at Barnyard Mountain?"
Cao Xing's eyes were full of longing and excitement, and he slowly recalled: "That time I brought more than 30 local ruffians from this county to surround you at the foot of Barnyard Mountain, and you looked at us so indifferently, I laughed at you I don’t know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth. You say that I don’t know when my death is imminent. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that someone could knock down more than 30 strong men holding wooden sticks with their own strength. It seems that the storyteller old man Feng is right, there is no stopping a hero."
"When you grabbed my neck and picked it up like a chicken, I actually forgot my fear. At that time, I told myself that if I could survive, even if I couldn't be by your side, I would definitely follow your back A smile bloomed on Cao Xing's face, he put away his usual frivolousness, and spoke out one by one the past events that were pent up in his heart.
Lu Bu moved his body to make room for Cao Xing.Cao Xing took two steps back and sat down on the ground.
Lu Bu got up and changed a candle, the bright light made his handsome cheeks flush.
While fixing the candlelight on the table, Lu Bu said, "So what if you are skilled in martial arts? I can fight ten or a hundred. What if there are thousands of people?"
Cao Xing was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
Lu Bu sat cross-legged, facing Cao Xing and continued: "I used to laugh at those poor scholars, let alone those who have no strength to restrain their chickens, and those who know how to shake their heads all day long. What's the use of reading such books?"
"but……"
Lu Bu took a breath and changed his voice, "But there is another group of scholars who have read countless books, know astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom. .”
When he said this, Lu Bu suddenly felt a pain in his head, and a vague and floating figure appeared, with a white fox face and a big green robe.
"Those donkey-grass dogs can have such a great ability?"
Of course Cao Xing didn't believe it.
Lu Bu smiled helplessly, and gave Cao Xing a relatively simple metaphor: "If there were scholars like I said in the army, there would be no such miserable situation."
Cao Xing curled his lips and let Lv Bu speak eloquently. He didn't believe that those frail scholars could have such overwhelming abilities.
Lu Bu took out a volume of bamboo slips that he had just read from the high pile of books on the other side of the desk, threw it to Cao Xing, and said with a smile, "Read these more if you have time, it will be very beneficial for the future marching formation."
Cao Xing trembled, seeing the bamboo slips as something ghostly and evil, and threw them back to Lu Bu's desk, as if mocking himself: "They know me, but I don't know them."
Cao Xing yawned, got up and patted his buttocks, and said goodbye to Lu Bu, "Boss, I'll go back first and get sleepy, so you should go to bed earlier."
Lu Bu picked up the bamboo slips thrown by Cao Xing, waved at Cao Xing, and asked again, "You really don't want to learn?"
Cao Xing took two steps back and shook his head like a wave. He would rather fight head-to-head with someone than learn such a boring thing.
"Forget it, when you suddenly figure it out one day, you will naturally come to me."
Lu Bu sat back to the original position, picked up the scroll of bamboo slips that he hadn't finished reading, and sat upright.
Cao Xing, who was walking to the door of the curtain, suddenly stopped, turned his head and called Lv Bu softly, "Boss".
Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Cao Xing suspiciously: "Why, is there anything else?"
Cao Xing hesitated for a while, but finally said: "Boss, just now you said that you can beat ten or one hundred, but what if there are thousands of people standing in front of you?"
Lu Bu nodded, this time it was his turn to not understand what Cao Xing meant.
"You once told me that I, Lu Bu, will definitely do what I want to do. If there is one person blocking me, I will kill one person. If there are thousands of people blocking me, I will kill tens of thousands."
Cao Xing looked at Lu Bu, and his tone was a little apprehensive, but also a little hopeful, "Is it the same now?"
Lu Bu blushed for no reason, but fortunately there was candlelight flickering, which was not easy to detect.He really wanted to tell Cao Xing that it was just a rhetoric when he was young and frivolous, no one can really defeat thousands of people.
But when he saw Cao Xing's eyes full of expectations, Lu Bu suddenly felt great pride in his chest, and he said firmly: "Yes, it was like this before, and it will always be like this now and in the future! You are my brother, no matter who you are Mine, or those who stop you, have to die!"
When Cao Xing heard this, he gave a heavy "Yes" and walked out of the tent without looking back.
